Product Description:

Calcitonin salmon, also known as salmon calcitonin, is a synthetic polypeptide hormone used in the management of disorders related to bone metabolism and calcium regulation. It is a derivative of human calcitonin and consists of 32 amino acids. Due to its higher potency and longer duration of action compared to human calcitonin, salmon calcitonin has become the preferred form for clinical use. It is primarily indicated for the treatment of postmenopausal osteoporosis, Paget’s disease of bone, and hypercalcemia.

Calcitonin salmon is available as an injectable formulation for intravenous, intramuscular, or subcutaneous administration, as well as a noninvasive intranasal spray. The nasal spray formulation received early regulatory approval for osteoporosis treatment and offers an alternative for patients who prefer non-injectable therapy, although its bioavailability is lower compared to injectable forms. In addition, oral formulations of salmon calcitonin are under clinical development, with advanced candidates having reached late-stage clinical trials.

The therapeutic action of calcitonin salmon is mediated through inhibition of osteoclast activity, resulting in reduced bone resorption and increased renal excretion of calcium. These effects lead to decreased serum calcium levels and stabilization of bone mass, making calcitonin salmon beneficial in managing bone and calcium-related disorders.
